B.J. Penn will not fight in Las Vegas again

By on May 20, 2009

UFC lightweight champion BJ Penn insists he never wants to fight in Las Vegas again.

Penn is still angry that the Nevada State Athletic Commission did not take action against Georges St Pierre after UFC 94, for having grease rubbed on his body.

“To me, Keith Kizer can’t be trusted,” Penn said today on the DAM Morning Show. “The head of the athletic commission can’t be trusted. I never want to fight under the Nevada State Athletic Commission again, so I don’t know when’s the next time you’re going to see me in Vegas.”

“I thought the Athletic Commission was there for your health and safety, not to d**k you around,” Penn added. “I love Las Vegas, without a doubt. I just don’t like the athletic commission. It’s dangerous for any human being.”

Penn is set to defend his title against Kenny Florian at UFC 101 in August.
